Apparantly the problem is more complicated than it seems; why can we not simply classify the smasher and crew pages as smasher and crew pages, respectively,(there should be no diffuiculty in determining this classification) and filter the random page function not to include these two? These, at least can be easilly classified and dealt with. The classification issue is most definitely larger than this, but at least in regard to these two kinds of articles, I can't see who could disagree to their being classified as such. -Whether or not to classify or filter any of the other various types of pages is not currently my concern.

Hey all! I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this (and if it isn't, then my apologies :P), but since I had seen someone ask if there was a NIWA IRC in porple's talk page, I figured I would post this: while we do not have a NIWA IRC, we do have the [http://www.niwanetwork.org/forums/ forums].

::::::I am strongly against doing this. I agree with the points Toomai made and as I see it, most of the top smashers have articles that are good enough and are no need of being rewritten. Some need updates, yes, but a rewrite, no. A majority of the smasher articles are articles of smashers that fulfill our notability guidelines. One more thing I would like to ask, who is going to go through and unnecessarily rewrite all these smasher articles? I sure as hell don't want to when there are more important things I could work on and I highly doubt you will. As for your statement against Toomai, there is absolutely nothing wrong with someone being primarily on this Wiki for smasher articles as long as they're not constantly creating articles of non notable smashers. It was decided long ago on the Wiki that the competitive scene would be covered, which includes covering the smashers that make up the scene. As such, these smasher articles are legitimate content. It would simply be much better to get rid of the crud manually instead of nuking the entire smasher namespace, as it would cause us to lose legitimate content and put this Wiki behind in progress, which to me, is absolutely unnecessary. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span>[[Image: TyranitarMS.png|25px ]] 00:51, 8 October 2010 (EDT) | |||
:::::::Miles, I like this idea, but I don't think it jives with the notability guidelines we have at the moment. Firstly, like OT said, some of the most notable smasher articles are well written enough to be worth keeping without the need for a complete rewrite. Secondly, while I believe our current smasher notability guidelines are a bit too lenient, they are still in effect and we're still obliged to follow them. This means that technically, most of the smasher articles from the old wikia are legit and do belong here. You don't need to delete an article to rewrite it. Also if now's the time to complain about stuff from the old wiki that we don't want anymore, I call omitting the Female Smashers category. I don't like that category.

::::::::Honestly, who will actually go through and revive everything?

<small>indent reset</small> I just thought it would be easier to, instead of trying to examine every single smasher article one by one for notability, rewrite the articles of notable smashers and delete the rest.

:With that though, while "easier", we lose a good deal of legitimate content just to remove a few crap articles, and there are a good amount (especially among the top smashers) of smasher articles that don't need any rewrites/revisions at all. While a rewrite/revision can always improve, it isn't necessary to keep the article at an acceptable level. All in all, this just seems lazy when it's really not too hard to search for the crud manually and is just overall unnecessary. You also have to consider the fact that most of the active editors here barely contribute to the smasher namespace, so if we were to go through with your plan, it would take far too long for the smasher namespace to be restored to the level it is at now to make up for all that time without the content that was being restored and was legitimate to begin with. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span>[[Image: TyranitarMS.png|25px ]] 18:12, 9 October 2010 (EDT) | |||

== Thumbnail error == | |||
Some images are not forming thumbnails correctly, creating an error message instead. I've tagged the pages where this happens with {{t|SiteGlitch}}, and its Whatlinkshere should show the list. Any way to fix this? (Oh Porple, I'm looking at you.)

:I sent another Special:Contact about that the other day but haven't heard back yet. If they want proof I may point them to the SW:WIKIAFREE page, which has 27 signatures (more sigs than active users).

=="SmashWikidian" vs "SmashWikian" == | |||
I've noticed a lot of people have been using the term "Smashwikidian", which simply sounds awkward. Some people have said the reason for this is to distinguish us from SmashWikia, but for one, I think that it is SmashWikia's responsibility to distinguish themselves from us, and also, wouldn't "SmashWikier" work better for that?

::SmashWikier is an incredibly bad name and SmashWikian is also bad, SmashWikidian works the best.

:::Um, say "SmashWikidian". That is certainly less smooth than simply "SmashWikian". Grammatically, it should be "SmashWikian". Concerns have been raised that such a name is too similar to "SmashWikia", but it is there responsibility to change their adjectives, not ours.
